“An excellent dramatisation of an immensely important period of modern history, and a great piece of contemporary theatre in its own right, Undermined is unmissable.”
Broadway World

"Undermined is quite simply the best example of theatre telling a political story without labouring the point which I have seen for many a long year"
Fringe Review


One man, one chair and one pint, that is all that is required to tell this epic tale of the brave men and women who stood up and fought for what they believed in.

Based on true stories from the 1984 miners' strike, Undermined vividly evokes a year when friendships were strengthened and communities came together in the face of adversity. This powerful and deeply human story, bringing together the personal and the political, will have you laughing, crying and shaking with anger.

Written and performed by Danny Mellor.

They like it

  • a strongly-performed show with a sense of thoroughness and accuracy here, a piece which is partisan but passionate

    ****. The Scotsman

  • Whether you know the history of the miners’ strike inside out or know nothing about it, you will take a lot from this show … If you get a chance, go.

    Morning Star

  • a performance that is pure coal-powered electricity

    ****. Broadway World
